The Cisco 1500 series micro hubs are small, desktop hubs that can be used to connect network devices in a small branch or remote office environment. You can connect up to eight network devices to one Cisco 1500 series micro hub. Up to five hubs can be stacked and interconnected.
The Cisco 1500 series models include the Cisco Micro Hub 1501, the Cisco Micro Hub 1502, and the Cisco Micro Hub 1503.
You can use any of the hub models as a standalone networking device, or connected to other compatible 10BaseT hubs or switches to form a larger network. You can also stack and connect up to five hubs through rear-panel ports, to form a larger network.
By adding one Cisco Micro Hub 1503 to a stack of Cisco Micro Hub 1502s, you can configure and manage all the hubs in the stack from a remote location. Stacking five Cisco micro hubs together allows you to manage up to 40 hub ports.
Cisco Micro hub models can be stacked with Cisco Network Office (CNO) components to deliver an integrated solution to the small- and medium-sized business for LAN/WAN connectivity, security, and web services. CNO components include the following:
Single-vendor solutions such as these offered by Cisco Systems, lowers network management time and cost.
